'^V^tWt tim* A distinct dix'ision between the breasts is especially important for the new fashions. To meet this need, Maiden Form developed this "Variation'* brassiere which — in addition to under-breast stitching for extra-firm support — gives you that fashionable line-of-separation. Note the little heart-shaped "over-lap*' at the center front — it supplies just enough gentle pressure at the necessary point! $1.00 and $1.50. In "Over-Ture" brassieres (left) little stitched 'petals' accomplish extra firm uplift support. In bandeau style, or with 2-, 4or 6' inch diaphragm band.

Mrs. Rogers wrote scenarios for the then famous "Baby Marie Osbourne." Ginger and Marie were playmates. And now, with Ginger the great star, the former Baby Marie is her stand-in Adventures of An Extra Girl [Continued from page 37] He looked at me sternly and said, ''Yeah, the 'Killer!'" Now I know that's only a nickname and all in fun and all that sort of thing but when a man looks at you like that and says "Killer" what does a girl do? She does what I did — grins feebly and says, "You're right ! It is a hot day !" He's with Mack and George a lot and proceeded to tell me about them. They quarrel a great deal — principally because Mack (who lives with George) won't take any pride in his room ! "For two years," says George, "I've tried to get Mack to fix up his room. His drapes are lousy! But does he care? What will people think of my house if they get a peek at Mack's room?" And finally, "Who's boss around here anyway?" And Mack grins and goes serenely on his way. The boy said George was the most generous person he's ever known. He told me that when George was making a personal appearance in New York it didn't take long for people to discover just how kind he is. And after every performance there were people outside the theatre — and inside, if they could make it — with hardluck stories. Often they had their gas and light bills (which they couldn't pay) to show George, and the boy said it was amazing how much money changed hands that way. I think that's grand ! His clothes must be just right. "Is this all right?" "Does that hang straight?" Are his shoes too pointed? Does the sole come out too far? "Half the time," says the boy, "I don't know what he's talkin' about ! But I should argue with George Raft? And whether he's fussy or he ain't, he's one swell guy !" N OW coming from a hard-boiled extra that's really sump'n' ! We hear so much palaver — and every so often our movie favorites turn out to be such stuffed shirts. I hate to admit it, but it's true. And if that disillusions you, you'll have to mark it down as one of Life's minor tragedies. The one consolation is that on the whole they are real people. And after all, you get an occasional So-and-So in every walk of life ! Margaret Sullavan is real — so real that for a long time Hollywood couldn't understand her. The first day I was on a set with her she ate her lunch perched at the counter with the crew ! Now that remark may not leave you gasping but if you knew how some of the languid lad'es of the screen spend their lunch hour you'd see what I'm driving at. Usually the star, followed by a solicitous maid, retires to her dressingroom. She rests ; she nibbles at a perfectlyserved lunch ; then (when the spirit moves !) she returns to the set. But none of that for young Dynamo Sullavan ! During her lunch hour I saw her first, on a bike, then on a horse and finally on a motorcycle, going around the studio lot like mad — and hanging on for dear life. She left herself just enough time for her usual salad and glass of milk. Then back on the set for more work ! And speaking of lunch (pardon me if I seem to dwell on lunch and food — you get that way from being an extra girl!), reminds me of an amusing incident that happened a short time ago "on location." The spot was the desert — and really, starting out, we looked like a caravan ; five hundred extras to be transported, sound truck, cameras, crew and of course the allimportant lunch wagons. On location the studio must supply the lunch so the wagons are set up in a conspicuous place just outside the scene of action. The director of the picture was a Russian, Boleslawsky. Now Mr. Boleslawsky not only sports a 78 Movie Classic for October, 1936
